CSR Committee and Group CSR Liaison Meetings to promote CSR activities across the NTT Group
NTT created a CSR Committee chaired by a Senior Executive Vice President in June 2005 to establish a clear management structure for the implementation of the NTT Group's CSR activities.
With the establishment of the CSR Committee, we brought the existing Global Environmental Protection Promotion and Social Contribution Promotion Committees under its control, rationalizing the organization to promote CSR. To unify CSR initiatives across the Group, we hold regular Group CSR Liaison Meetings at which the CSR Committee shares information on the latest issues under discussion, and individual companies in the Group also explain their CSR initiatives. Group CSR Liaison Meetings are also used to discuss issues shared by Group companies and any other matters pertaining to the further promotion of CSR.

The NTT Group has launched discussions on how its 200,000 employees can be marshaled to further promote citizenship activities as Team NTT.
On February 5, 2008, NTT Group company CSR and citizenship activity handlers gathered for a CSR Workshop to discuss ways of raising awareness and enhancing structures for bringing the Group's 200,000 employees together to drive citizenship activities as "Team NTT". After different Group companies introduced the citizenship activities being pursued through their businesses, the discussion focused on the links between local and global issues to provide participants with a fresh awareness of how closely the world is interconnected. In the discussions that followed, the participants reexamined the initiatives being pursued by their respective companies, and reaffirmed the importance of concrete action and participation, and of nurturing people with the right mindsets to drive activities aimed at building a sustainable society.
Chisato Murakami, Chief Coordinator for the Japan Council on the UN Decade of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD-J), gave a talk as guest speaker at the Workshop, which did much to stimulate thought on how to bring Group employees together to implement citizenship activities as Team NTT. We plan to hold further discussions to drive the formulation and implementation of concrete initiatives.
